What childcare usually costs in Rochdale
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Rochdale from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What it is like to attend
Children are happy and cheerful in the nursery. They have positive relationships with staff and their peers. Children engage in exciting activities provided by the staff. For example, they use small hammers to break dinosaurs out of pieces of ice.
This helps children to persevere with challenges and develop a positive attitude towards learning which they will need for their future success. Staff respond sensitively to children's needs and support them to acknowledge others' feelings.
Children have a good understanding of the nursery routine. The curriculum is well thought out and children are engaged in play and learning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to consistently follow behaviour strategies to support children to understand behaviour expectations n provide staff with focused individual feedback to support their professional development and to further improve the teaching of the curriculum.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
